Algorithmic software of the automatic risk management system on offshore drilling platform with a high level of automation.

Offshore drilling platform is a complex object that includes an integrated automation system, each element of which is the source of the risk of emergency situations occurrence. These elements include primary transducers such as sensors, actuating devices and the systems of automatic control and regulation, due to their potential possibility of incorrect response to emerging operating conditions. Implementation of these risks can lead to catastrophic consequences. An algorithm for risk management as an add-on centralized automatic management system of the drilling platform was proposed to minimize the risks and their consequences. The algorithm includes the identification of risks, their analysis, prioritization, risk management planning, the process of managing and monitoring the risk metrics, according to which the assessment of the quality and effectiveness of risk management is carried out. Planning of risk management includes the processes determining ways to manage, search for ways to reduce the risks, risk documenting and risk metrics. The algorithm is based on the analysis of scientific publications dedicated to the description of emergency situations on drilling platforms: their causes, course and consequences; database of design offices, as well as the author's own research conducted at several drilling platforms operating in the Black Sea shelf.
